Title: Water bottle rocket
Post by mazzy_j on Nov 18^th, 2006, 12:41am

Anyone ever thought of strapping numerous water bottle rockets to themselves??

Someone in Japan did...

Always 'game for a laugh' the Japs.

I remember the Japanese show 'Endurance' where they used to do the most ridiculous things.......like trying to eat as many worms as they could before they were sick, or seeing how long they could sit in a bath full of leaches for ::)

Obviously where...'I used to be a celeb, get me out of here'... got their ideas from ;D

Ahhh, the days of yoof ;)

I did make a water rocket once when I was a kid, kept upping the pressure until it burst and I got soaked but it was good fun :)

Of course then I moved on to go-karts, was given a spin dryer motor once and planned to attach it onto a propeller onto the back of the kettler, couldn't work out a way to make it work on 12v though (perhaps a good thing, the local A&E was miles away ;))

And then there were the plans for a steam engine...got talked out of that one ::)

Seems to me that give a child a state of the art toy and they always have more fun playing with the box...I know I did ::)

Regards, Bruce.
